diindium

Diindium is a hypothetical molecule with the chemical formula In2. While indium is a well-established element in the periodic table, diindium has not been definitively observed or synthesized under standard conditions. Theoretical studies have explored the possibility of its existence, particularly in extreme environments or as a transient species. These studies suggest that diindium might form a diatomic molecule analogous to other diatomic metals. However, experimental evidence supporting its stability and formation remains limited. The properties of such a molecule would likely be influenced by the metallic bonding characteristics of indium. Further research would be required to confirm the existence and investigate the properties of diindium.
